About This Quote
More than once in my own life, I have found myself playing the role of a character in a fantasy world. I have been someone else. Sometimes, it was just fantasy for entertainment, but other times, the fantasy was driven by emotion or by desperation. Whatever the reason, playing a character in a fantasy world did something to me that allowed me to cope with reality. Whether it was temporarily or long term, I gained strength from being someone else.
